Not handball. It hits the bottom of his ribcage.
Arsenal - Aston Villa, Today, In about 3 and a half hours.
- Edited
It’s a handball. Let’s get over it and move forward.
Look again, it went right past his ribcage and hit the arm in the back of that shot, not the arm in the front.
Yeah unfortunately I think that's correct, his arm also moves at the point of impact.
USArsenal I see it now. Makes it better somehow.
Artetas post match comments are concerning. Sounds like he's sending a message to the board, third match in a row he does that.
Maybe you shouldn't have wasted cash on some of the useless players you brought in.
Big Willie you have 1 angle in those twitter videos and it hides the arm.
Mirth more than achieving the targets they set? I guarantee there was no deal that said "we'll buy you Calafiori if you win the league". Everyone said we were ahead of schedule when were flying high, so obviously nobody thought what we'd done so far would be enough. There was no follow through this summer because they were happy with where we were at, not because they wanted more "ROI".
What the fuck happened here?
I watched the first half and was pleasantly surprised with the performance, considering the personnel. Couldn't watch the second half, had to be driving.
I see we went 2-0 up and then fucked it all up? Can't someone give me a brief summary what went wrong?

Defended two balls into the box poorly. That was it, really. Frustrating that we didn't even blow the win in any sort of interesting way.
tielemans run and finish was great, as was the delivery. but that was a winnable ball for merino. it highlighted an issue I've noticed with him struggling to track back. he's often lagging behind the ball on defensive transitions. it kind of makes him a general drag on our game because he doesn't exactly ligh the world on fire up front either.
DiabyKungFu Cheers DKF! Ah, sucks. Fucking Emery again.
Coombs to be honest, I wonder if the whole "ahead of schedule" thing was used to temper the expectations of the fans for when we suddenly became competitive again. Bit of good old fashioned sandbagging.
Oh my god that was painful, in complete control and switched off twice and they score from half chances. Last 10 mins was so painful, fuck man it felt like the goal would come but just didn't. The disallowed goal, Merino hitting the post and then Trossard at the end (think he was offside).
The footballing gods have deserted us!

Essentially, as seen for several seasons now it's impossible to win without Saliba even with £700m or whatever is spent on players.

invisibleman18 nothing to do with Saliba missing. We’ve dropped plenty of points with him this season - it’s 80% Partey at RB and 20% anything else
Why not play Kiwior at CB? We did for large portions of the home stretch- I know he’s not perfect but it’s surely is a better option than what we saw today
